Legend Cruises
Friday, May 25, 2012

RELAX your mind and let the journey fly you above the waters to one of the most pristine paradise locations in the world. Join the team at Legend Cruises for a good day of fun, for three, four, five or six-day cruise.

Join the fun at affordable rate, experience the cultural expedition. Simply hop on the Seahorse and ride the Yasawa Legend and see for yourself the pristine beauty and clear blue waters that made this region famous. The ship is owned and managed by Rick Sadranu who was born and hails from the island of Tamusua, Northern Yasawa. Rick's dream has always been to share the beauty of his Fijian village with the many tourists that come to Fiji. His ship, Yasawa Legend is the only cruise ship that can take you to the highest point of Yasawa where you can explore the famous Blue Lagoon Caves.

You will experience the real lives of the Yasawa people, observe the local trading on route between the in-built supermarket on board and the local villagers. Local village people can trade fish and vegetables in exchange for local transfers, or for food necessities such as flour, rice and sugar. Currently there is no access or means of supplies for the far north villages in the Yasawa Group. With no or little money, this bartering system will change the lives of many village people. Legend Cruises will provide local transfers for hotel staff and villages along with a much needed cargo service.

If you're looking for an affordable adventure this Queen's Birthday long weekend, board the Yasawa Legend at 5pm on Friday June 8, Fishermans Wharf Lautoka, where you will be cruising through the night in time to breakfast at the famous Blue Lagoon Caves.
